Hi,

I've download a program onto my micrsoft desktop (xp) and it's installed correctly ... when I double click the icon to start the program it is immediately shut down and the icon on the taskbar disapears when you scroll your mouse over to it.. How do I turn off my firewall so I can use this program?

Thanks
